It is easy to calculate the lobes that are created when we use multiple drivers. That means we can mathematically derive the closest distance that all of the horns in the entire system will "play" together.

Nope, it is imposable. The lobes will derive from the crossover slopes, proximity of driver’s resonances to the horn rate, proximity of the horns axis and many other factors, room acoustics and many many other factors. I truly do not think that anything besides the empirical methods would bring any result. The drivers integration is not a Boolean algebra and there are always degrees of integration acceptance. Anyhow, the question Petar asked doe not deals even with relation between distance and integration but between distance and tone. This is WAY more complex subject and I do not think that anyone would be able to generalize on it, particularly if they know what they are talking about.
